I'm trying to find out the difference between the "Early" or "Late" type operating rod catch assembly. Does anyone know? I have a Garand and the accelerator is smooth on the edge. The bolt does not release when a loaded clip is inserted. I swapped it from another M-1 (accelerator has a raised edge on it) and the bolt releases properly.
I'd like to replace the accelerator but no one seems to sell just that part, you have to buy the whole catch assembly and they advertise "Late" or "Early" and I don't know which is which. I believe the op rod and the catch assembly are mismatched.
